A Dragan Kesich 47-yard field goal as time expired gave the Gophers a 13-10 win over Nebraska to start the season 1-0 and Minnesota keeps the Broken Chair. An unusual and unlikely win but Minnesota extended its winning streak over Nebraska to 5 games.
A start to the season between two teams with a number of significant questions. Perhaps none of those questions were answered but ultimately Minnesota made fewer key mistakes and came away with the win.
Turnovers are often a key indicator of the game’s outcome and that was absolutely true at Huntington Bank Stadium tonight.
